- As a general note to a reviewer, Earwigs flags some of the wording in the article (primarily around titles and awards) from a prior version of his Navy biography. However, as these are proper titles/names and works of the US Government are public domain this is not copyright infringement. The article also includes {{USNAVY}} at the bottom, to indicate it pulls from US Navy sources. Best, Mifter (talk) 21:13, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
New enough (less than seven days old), long enough (minimum of 1,500 characters excluding block quotes, headers, images and captions), hook is interesting enough, cited, and verified. The possible copyright issue is understood since official titles from the United States Navy cannot be rephrased or reworded. It conforms to DYK policy, and the QPQ requirement is met.
